Windows 7 Install

[FlaveRo]

Hi, guys I Black Friday has just past meaning I just bought parts for another build. For my OS I got a good deal from Trinity Software, $70 for Windows 7 Home Premium and the disc came today... To my disappointment it happens to be a Dell reinstallation DVD for Windows 7. Now it has a serial number and all but it looks kinda shady! So come Friday when I will be building my new computer, I was wondering if it will work?

that windows wont work, never buy discounted windows licenses, they are always fake.

Not 'looks shady', 'is shady'.

That disk is meant to be distributed with, and installed on, a new Dell system.

Hello... just download the right ISO, make a bootable USB stick using the Windows 7 Home Premium ISO... install and use the Dell disk key for activation. http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads.12325/ http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows7/a/install-windows-7-usb.htm

Hello... its your best option with what you got to work with. : ) that way it won't do any DELL install crap on your new install... it's the way I get other peoples computes working with a clean crapless install... A Windows key is a Windows Key, no matter what brand you buy.

I see and the OS will be legitimate correct, there shouldn't be any genuine issues?

Hello... you report back to us on that... as alot of people would like Windows Keys at $70... if the key is good Windows will tell you right away... using a ISO version will be the cleanest install of genuine Windows software.

Even if it 'works', it is not legal. And may be cut off by Microsoft at any time.

The guy selling you a bogus Dell disk told you it was legit? Where did I put that bridge?
